External DVD player and Macbook

Hello!


I have Macbook with macOS Catalina and just bought an external DVD player to see some of my favourite movies. I connect the DVD player and then put in the disc and then my MacBook opens the DVD Player-app. After that nothing happens. I can see the black screen of DVD Player and all its functions on the left upper corner, there is also play, volume, stop etc. buttons in the middle of the DVD-player app but nothing happens when I push one of them (or press space etc). Has anyone faced the same problem, could there be a solution to this?


Thank you all in advance.

MacBook Air 13″, macOS 10.15

if it was me then I would test it with a friend or relative or the likes mac

i used by external asus blue ray burner with my mac and it seemed to work ok but never own a blue ray movie in my life

it was not really something I got around to testing


also if you use some non std. blue ray movie likes some 4K one then I would test with a vanilla one
